Mean acquisition time (MAT) is the most important performance measure for code acquisition systems, where a shorter MAT implies a better code acquisition performance. Keshavarzian and Salehi proposed the multiple-shift (MS) algorithm for code acquisition in optical code division multiple access (O-CDMA) systems. Performing two steps acquisition, the MS algorithm has a shorter MAT than that of the conventional serial-search (SS) algorithm. In this paper, we propose a rapid code acquisition algorithm for O-CDMA systems. By using an efficient combination of local signals, correlation value, and the sign of correlation value, the proposed algorithm can provide a shorter MAT compared with that of the MS algorithm. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm presents a shorter MAT than that of the MS algorithm.

We propose an ultrashort pulse optical code-division multiple-access (O-CDMA) scheme based on a pseudorandom binary M-sequence spectral phase encoding and decoding of coherent mode-locked laser pulses and perform a numerical simulation to analyze its feasibility. We demonstrate the ability to properly decode any of the multiple (eight) 10 Gbit/s users by the matched code selection of the spectral phase decoder. The peak power signal to noise ratio of properly and improperly decoded $8{\times}10 Gb/s$ signals could be greater than 15 for 127 M-sequence coding.

In this paper, the network performance of a turbo coded optical code division multiple access (COMA) system with cross-layer, which is between physical and network layers, concept is analyzed and simulated We consider physical and MAC layers in a cross-layer concept. An intensity-modulated/direct-detection (IM/DD) optical system employing pulse position modulation (PPM) is considered In order to increase the system performance, turbo codes composed of parallel concatenated convolutional codes (PCCCs) is utilized. The network performance is evaluated in terms of bit error probability (BEP). From the simulation results, it is demonstrated that turbo coding offers considerable coding gain with reasonable encoding and decoding complexity. Also, it is confirmed that the performance of such an optical COMA network can be substantially improved by increasing the interleaver length and the number of iterations in the decoding process. The results of this paper can be applied to implement the indoor optical wireless LANs.
